This thread shows when Atari loses, they still end up winning post death.

@mr_me:

>Intellivision is the only second generation system that has multidirectional hardware pixel scrolling.

That's not correct; the Emerson Arcadia 2001 can also do this.

The Channel F’s two homebrew cartridge releases are tour de forces that utterly surpass any of the original releases in terms of music and graphics, if not in originality. Many of the Vectrex’s best games are homebrews.

1st gen:

Odyssey - 8 homebrews

 

Telstar Arcade -none

 

 

2nd gen:

Channel f - 2 homebrews with a 3rd coming + the multicart + a few more rom only ones

 

Rca Studio 2 - No phisical homebrews but a few rom releases + 2 game repros and the multicart

 

Bally Astrocade - 2 modern hombrews + multicarts + about 30 games from back in the day that were really the first homebrews ever...more if tape games are included

 

Apf - no modern homebrews but some tape homebrews from back in the day.

 

Arcadia 2001 - no phisical hombrews besides the multicarts but about a half dozen rom homebrews

I have been try to find any details on homebrew activity for the Arcadia 2001 but haven't been able to locate any information about such projects by searches here on AtariAge or Google.  Do you have any links to homebrew for the Arcadia 200, names of any hombrew titles even links to programming resources for homebrews?  Just asking since I just learned of the console and started researching it and wanted to seen more of what this system was capable of and there is no better gauge for that than by checking out the homebrew projects for a console.

I believe the only arcadia homebrews are all made by James Jacobs. And are probably only talked about on his excellent website the amigan or maybe a couple threads here at AA.

Edit: that's right there is a 3rd title. Tetris by Peter Trauner.

It is not complete (yet ?) for every console and especially old generations and Atari/american one, but Homebrews Connexion (retro-gc.fr) try to keep up to date list of homebrew.

I know NES, Megadrive, Game Boy and probably Dreamcast, Vectrex, SMS are mostly complete.

That got to be the same Peter Trauner who ported Tetris to Channel F? I wonder if any code or at least logic could be transferred between the F8 and the 2650, even though those are different systems.
